WELCOME TO THE FAM, BIG JOHN

Maybe one of our biggest dreams has just become a reality. Tony got the mill his heart has been set on for years. He found it on a small, obscure, online estate sale auction up in Minnesota last October. We won the bid, then it was shipped to Baker, the manufacturer in St. Louis. They spent a few months in maintenance on it, replacing hydraulic lines etc and it just arrived to Daufuskie. The name Big John is tribute to Tony’s father who passed away before we ever met and taught Tony so much about carpentry and construction. We will be selectively harvesting the timber on our property to make room for pasture and milling the logs into horse fencing, barn posts, beams, siding, decking…!
